Yesterday PM Justin Trudeau announced the National School Food Program, aiming to feed 400,000 more kids annually. Our CEO Diane Daley, and Pedagogical Consultant Linda Saad, were delighted to attend the event to celebrate this amazing commitment to Canadian children & families.
Thousands of families are paying reduced daycare fees under the national $10/day program & work is underway to ensure equal & greater access to affordable care. Those in the sector are pointing to workforce retention & home daycare as key to the expansion. https://t.co/49rRLSk81T

Today’s Family’s CEO, Marni Flaherty challenges our great partners Glenn Harkness @bgchamhal, Darryl Hall @umbrellafamily, and Carrie Horn HWCCC to participate in @Food4KidsHamOnt’s #EatABeet fundraiser, responding to food insecurity in our neighbourhoods
With Nunavut joining the Canada-wide child care plan today, making it 12 of 13 provinces/territories, it leaves Ontario as the sole jurisdiction on the outside--with the most expensive parent fees in all of Canada. @Sflecce@fordnation#cndchildcare
6/6 That is why we need @Sflecce to sign the childcare agreement. We can’t keep holding the economy on our shoulders with low pay and little to none recognition from this government. #signtheagreement
I am keen to get a childcare agreement signed, sealed and delivered for Ontario families that centres around affordable and quality care.
With $10B on the table, we will help families with the costs of childcare, support decent wages for ECEs, and increase the number of spaces.
To honour Orange Shirt Day & the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we are making our film, @SpiritBear & Children Make History, available to the public for free all week! Access to the film & resources for reconciliation, is available here: https://t.co/1juboVuEJl
